Galerie du Chat Cycle Tunnel

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

If your legs are heavy, this tunnel is a great pleasure. You save yourself hundreds of meters of elevation and have your own tunnel without any traffic. Wonderful!

Mont du Chat lookout (1504 m)

Highlight • Lake

Battery empty 4 km before the arrival 😏, fortunately only flat but headwind at the edge of the lake.
